Type: 35mm autofocus,
single-lens reflex camera with electronically-controlled automatic exposure, focal
plane shutter, and built-in motor drive. It was designed to be simple to use and
handle. It was also Canon first AF EOS SLR model that incorporated with built-in
flash design. Further, with the companion lens of EF 35~70mm, this camera was designed
to operate ONLY in autofocus as Manual focus control has been removed.

There's an elegant simplicity to the operation of these entry EOS models; the photographer
simply sets the selector dial and presses the shutter release. The smooth EOS contours
fit the camera snugly in the hand, with the selector dial and shutter release right
at the fingertips for responsive operation.Along with the EOS 850, both series
has an innovative pre-wind film advance mode in which all of the film waswound forward
when the camera wasloaded and then rewound back into the cassette one frame at a
time as the photos are taken. The camera was replaced with Canon EOS 700
in 1990.Remarks:

when the camera judges that the situation wasbacklit. or under-lit. After the flash
fires, it retracts, allowing fully automatic shooting.*
